  1. More Bergman tucks. I am honing my Blender skills and that's why I am pushing out so many trucks. Modded in Blender, printed on Mars 2 & 4. OO/Ho scale. Primed and ready for a rub down, check over and a dosh of paint.
  2. Not my style, sorry. The windows can be removed quiet easily. check out one of my old videos. How to remove Bergman windows
  3. Some Bergman trucks. I have taken the windows out and hollowed the underside. This makes it easier to print, glaze the windows from the inside and place interiors with drivers. No prep to the final print, just removed the supports and a coat of primer. It shows all the defects that way. The primer looks very rough but to the Mk 1 eyeball its looks and feels Ok. 50mp camera setting.

  5. I am nowhere that detail but I try. Back in the day every building had character not just boxes😠
  6. The train is Ok but I am loving those buildings behind. All the added bits and bobs over the years make it look so interesting.
  7. Cheers Kevin, had to get my finger out as I have a couple of shows coming up👍
  8. OO scale Freelance trains. Each train runs as a pair, one part has a N20 motor and 75g ish of lead weight. The second part has the decoder and a large stay alive to get across all my 3d printed points and turntables. The last 6 pics show the motor chassis in detail. Wheels are coupled with O rings to make it all wheel drive. Designed in SketchUp Make and printed on a Mars 2/4, Ender 3.
  9. I have boring canal sides on my layout so I decided to make some cranes and small dioramas. I have little dovetail clips fitted to the canal sides and the cranes clip on. Mix and match and easily replaced if they don't work out. Plus, everything has to be removed to transport the layout. All designed in SketchUp Make, Blender and Makehuman. Printed on Mars 2-4 and Ender 3's. The items are just placed for the photos and will be moved around to suit the scene.
  10. Testing the SFY (transferer) Fully automatic. Nearly everything in the build was found in my garage, that's why it's a bit rough and ready. 9 locos, 4 canal boats and 10 pushers all being controlled by JMRI/CMRI, DCC++, YAAT for automation and a MERG booster for luck. What's the chance of me getting this running sweetly at a show? I reckon slim to none but I will see in a couple of weeks at Norwich MR show. Enjoy Eddy Video link here
  11. EssexBrick Model Railway. An overview and a few trains running. Fully automated using JMRI/CMRI and YAAT for the automation. Nearly everything is designed and 3d printed by myself using SketchUp Make, Makehuman and Blender. The canal boats running can be seen in one of my other videos. Enjoy Eddy Check out the video here.
  12. EssexBrick MR exhibition layout. Fully automatic 4 canal boat running. Full sequence takes about 5 mins. CPU control is JMRI/CMRI and YAAT for the automation. All designed and 3d printed by me. Mars 2-4 and Ender 3x2. YouTube video link
  13. Run your model though Prusa slicer/Fix by window repair log. Once fixed check dimensions and if all correct export the fixed model and import into your resin slicer. I would go for Chitubox or similar, not home brand slicer as they are not the best.

  15. Thanks Nyeti. I have pickups on all wheels which goes to the 5pin connector. The motor chassis is connected to a decoder stay alive wagon. They have to run as a pair. The gear is a bevel one. I got a pluggin for Blender and you just put the numbers in and it works out the gears and it's a case of 3d printing them. Those N20 motors are a super strong motor with good slow running. Not for HST but good for my layout with slow running locos. You need a good lump of lead for decent traction. Once you design one chassis it's super cheap to print of a load of them and just add a loco body. Eddy
  16. I check my model for errors through Super slicer, Netfabb and the use Chitubox for the resin slice.
  17. 1st print of a freelance loco. It fits on top of my little chassis. Designed in SketchUp (make still free). Printed on Mars 4 9K. I liked the standee out rivets on the real loco picture and it was a good exercise in applying lots and lots of rivets in SketchUp. I know there are layer lines on top of the boiler, I will orientate it better once I fix the errors. The little bike came out well, the joy of 3d printing. Blast of car primer to highlight the detail and errors.

  19. Thanks Kevin. I think I have the automation sorted now. Had to cancel a show I was going to, which was a shame as I could of given the layout operation a good test. Eddy
